Hovik Report post Posted May 16, 2007 You already put a deposit on it? I was going to tell you to watch Ronin and then go put a deposit down on an old school S8! I was going to say the same thing. If I was to look into a big sedan from that year I'd go with an 02 S8. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abolfaz Report post Posted May 16, 2007 I had a 97 740il black/tan back in 97. I loved the car, but like the interior color combo on this one much better. I also like the styling of these cars much better than the new ones. My 740il was the first car I ever had with a heated steering wheel, super cool ten years ago. They look great with big rims and lowered, but I don't know how that affects the ride. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Report post Posted May 17, 2007 It's a very enjoyable car to drive when you take into consideration that it's a huge luxury sedan. Just make sure that it has all the service records and that the transmission oil has been replaced every 30K miles or so. The transmissions (made by GM) in most BMW's don't like to see high mileage without any oil changes. Other then that they're pretty reliable.

PorscheDude Report post Posted May 17, 2007 Those look really sweet. But 20s? What happen to not looking like a gangsta? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDoctor Report post Posted May 17, 2007 Those look really sweet. But 20s? What happen to not looking like a gangsta? 20's look just right on a big car like the 740. Those wheels are sweet . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest skokos Report post Posted May 17, 2007 20's look just right on a big car like the 740. Those wheels are sweet . Thanks buddy! ya..i think on a different car 20's might be to big but i think the 740il will handle them just fine! i had a friend put 22's on his CLS55 AMG and that was kind of pushing it but i think they will fit nicely on the 7! im still waiting to see if theres anything else around but i think a $1000 for 4 new 20'' rims is going to be hard to find a better deal!

TrentS Report post Posted May 18, 2007 What do you guys think? Yikes, those are "gangsta"... Don't cheap out on wheels, they're a rather important part of your car. Buy QUALITY, and quality isn't the cheapest you can find... I've never even heard of "Ruff Racing" wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PorscheDude Report post Posted May 18, 2007 Tirerack has 20" ASA AR1 wheels for $230 a piece. My friend has them on his M3 (those are 19s on his car). ASA isnt a no name brand either, they are actually made my BBS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDoctor Report post Posted May 18, 2007 Alright, how about this... I would trust ASA just as equally as Ruff Racing. I don't believe quality difference unless there is a difference as to how they are made (three piece, forged, etc.) 1K for a set of 4? That is a steal, I would buy them.
